Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large white onion thinly sliced
  • 2 cups mushrooms sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 cup Gruyère cheese

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are fully browned, soft and caramelized.
  • Add the chicken, mushrooms, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Let simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the white wine and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Stir in the parsley and top the chicken with Gruyère cheese. Cover and cook on low heat until the cheese is fully melted.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use half beef broth and half chicken broth.
If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute chicken broth or water.
You can also add other vegetables to this dish, such as carrots, celery, or bell peppers.
To make this dish ahead of time, cook the chicken and vegetables as directed, then let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to serve, reheat the skillet over medium heat and stir in the cheese until melted and bubbly.
